I think you have Jack backwards, Ducat. If he got on the bus it would be to steal your wallet.

'I just jumped the watchman
Right outside the fence
Took his ring, four bucks in change
Now ain't that heaven sent?'

Jack Straw isn't about sharing - it's about taking what you need to survive. "We done shared all of mine' - you've taken everything I have, now it's your turn.

If Jack was stranded with another and they had a limited food supply are you saying he would'nt share?

It would depend on who that other person was - and what Jack had to gain from the transaction. Life is cheap here -
